 SARATOGA, Sept. 14.-At 1915 the Repub ican State convention was called to order The Rev. MT. Leach opened the proceedings with prayer. Out of total of 693 delegates all but few were in their seats The Hon. Seth Low, of Brooklyn, was elected tempo rary chairman by exclamation and addressed the convention at length. Committees on permanent organization, resolutions and con- tested seats, each consisting of one member from every congressional district, were ap- pointed. As soon as the committees were announced recess was taken until 4 o'clock to allow time for the preparation of their re- ports
 Temporary ChairmanLowe called the con- vention to order at 4:17 The committee on permanent organization reported in favor of Hon. Warner Miller for permanent chairman. The report was adopted and Senators Eva1ts and Hiscock were apponted to conduct MT. Miller to the chair. MT. Miller then addressed the convention, saying if the same uion and good feeling that distinguished the convention continued it would carry the party to success in the next campaign. Ir. Miller severely criticized the Democrat: for their failure to reduce the tariff and to orry out other prom iees they had made. The turning out of fifty thousand officeholdrs showed that the Democrats despised tn civil service law. The provisions of this lay could only be car ried out by the restoratiq of the Republican party to power. The Rpublican party has done mere TOT the labo of this country perhaps more for materil advancement-in that it has established sch tariff as put American industries andnanufaetures above those of any civilized ntion. And to-day our labor is employed d higher wages than anywhere else in the wo1d and the Amer ican citizen was assured he were an indus trious and honest Ian of securing for himself competency and enough beyond that to ducate his family and fit them for the duies of citizenship. MT. Miller spoke of the Presidents yetoes and said that the great ad loyal people of the North who have mac hundreds of mil lions of dollars cannot ford to have the stigma upon them that aiy man who wore the blue is being supported in common dlIuSuOuS0 NSI06U clGSS.t 10 DTOuIScO that were the Republicanparty returned to power it would see that tle veterans did not suffer.
 Senator Evarts nominaed Colonel Fred erick Dent Grant for secetary of State, talk ! ing occasion in his brief oeech to pay high tribute to General Grant. Mir. Johnson, of Kings, seconded the nomination in the name the sixty delegates of he county, and it 1 was carried by exclamation amid tremendous applause. When Colonel Grant entered the convention soon after he was received with hearty cheers. He tharked the gathering for the honor conferred upon him in a brief speech. Judge Jesse L'Amorcaux, of Sara toga; was nominated for comptroller; James H. Carmichael of Erie, for State treasurer; James A. Dsnnison of Fulton, for attorney general, and O. H. P. Cornell of Tompkins for State engineer and surveyor. The only contest was on the last nomination. Colonel .;d Gaueet af New York, introduced a resolu' o'on oo,oraJ ans raag . to the appointment oi State committee. Senator Fass~.t of Che. | th9g, opposed the resolution, declaring tlAoi ventionI. I+j0n 0n had been disposed of The con resolution by aa E, adopted Colonel Crulger'l Smith, chairman of tKote MT. Carroll E. tions, then read the platfof4ittee on resolu' sky, of New York, submitted nit, JE. Brod port and supported it in brief speech Howard Crosby, of New York, submitted tn following:

 Speeches were made by Messrs. Crosby Erwin of St. Lawrence and others. Senate
 Evarts said that nothing was necessary i the report of the committee except to hay | it understood and he then compared it wit
 MT. Crosby's amendment. Now let the COT l vention do the committee tn
 honor of treating them with the respect the
 were entitled to. They were accused by th
 amendment and speech of MT. Crosby wit
 double faced work. They were not discuss
 ing by section and by phrase the legislatio
 of last session He then read the claus
 in the platform in exceedingly distinct wa
 which threw the laughter of the conventio ! on to MT. Crosby, who tried to explain an
 was laughed down. MT. Crosby's amend
 ment was voted down nearly unanimously
 The question then recurred on MT. Brood

 as originally prepared and at 10:30 the COT
 vention adjourned sine die.
 The platform demands the restoration ( the Republican party to power on it's glori
 ous record and the proved incapacity of u
 Democratic party; demands that an
 changes in the tariff be made in the intere
 of protection; diclares that the political an
 civil rights of all both north and south mus
 be established beyond controversy favol
 liberal pensions; denounces Cleveland's per
 sions vetoes and his rebel fla
 order; calls for laws regulating immigratio
 and excluding Anarchists, Communist
 polygamists, prayers, criminals and insar
 and vicious persons, favors the taxation
 personal property, approves of laws againi
 the manufacture and sale of imitation butte
 or cheese, expresses sympathy for Ireland
 her struggle and pays attention to vario1
 State matters. The liquor plank is as flo
 lows:
 We heartily endorse the purpose of the Repub
 candnajority of the legislature Tn passing the bi
 to limit and restrict the liquor traffic and we co
 demn the vetoes of the Governor as hostile to tn
 purpose: We recommend comprehensive legis
 tion giving local option to the towns and titles al
